How to Unlock Wheels in LEGO Fortnite
Wheels are a timeless invention that has definitely made lives easier. Players can follow the step-by-step instructions below to unlock the crafting recipes for Wheels in LEGO Fortnite.

- Craft a Rare Forest Axe, using three Knotroot Rods and five Cut Amber.
- Head over to the Dry Valley and cut down a cactus in the desert. Once a cactus is cut down, it will drop Flexwood and unlock the build recipe for Small Wheel, Large Wheel, and Dynamic Foundation.
- Next, using the Lumber Mill, turn one Flexwood into a Flexwood Rod.
- Finally, players will unlock the exact blueprints for small or large wheels.
To craft Wheels, players need to access the Build menu and navigate to the Toys section.

How to Use Wheels in LEGO Fortnite
Wheels enable players to build unique vehicles in the game. However, they can only be placed on a Dynamic Foundation.
To craft a Dynamic Foundation, players first need to select it from the Toys section in the Build Menu. It requires four pieces of Flexwood. Next, they can attach wheels or balloons to a Dynamic Foundation, which enables players to travel through the biomes in a different way.
Players can select between small and large wheels to attach to the Dynamic Foundation. However, to make their vehicle go uphill, players would need to add a Thruster to it. Without a Thruster, the makeshift vehicle would simply go downhill using momentum. Unfortunately, there isn’t an option to add a steering wheel yet, making it difficult to control the vehicle.
